Li Ergou was also curious as to why someone would come to tell him the leader’s itinerary. Could his plans have been discovered? Li Ergou thought back on the past few days; he had indeed been going around the village asking about the leaders' schedules. Sometimes he had even threatened to seek revenge, but no one had paid him any mind. Everyone just took him for a madman.
But even if his intentions had been discovered, that was no reason for someone to come and disclose a leader’s itinerary to him. Li Ergou was pathetic, yes, but he wasn’t stupid. Could this be a trap? At the thought of this, Li Ergou let out a few laughs. If they were trying to lure him into a trap, it meant he still held some value. A real man should go out in a blaze of glory. Even if it was a trap, Li Ergou would go and face it himself.
Ding Yizhen kept Li Dakang’s instructions firmly in mind. This time, there would be reporters present, and every department of the Jinshan Team would be required to send representatives to observe. Qi Tongwei, however, held Li Dakang’s vanity project in contempt; it had been built by essentially draining Jinshan’s potential. Furthermore, Li Dakang was effectively killing the goose that laid the golden eggs. Qi Tongwei was simply waiting for the upcoming leadership transition. If he could move up a step after Li Dakang left, he would scale back some of Li Dakang’s original plans. Jinshan could not rely solely on construction projects to drive its GDP.
